We are a non-sectarian organization that addresses unresolved tensions by helping to change behaviors in religiously-diverse workplaces, schools and in areas of armed conflict. Founding year 1992. Programs include: � Primary Education Programs. � Religious Diversity in the Workplace. BACKGROUND AND ACTIVITIES � Religion and Conflict Resolution: The Tanenbaum Center convenes scholars, diplomats, government officials, clergy and other leaders on the use of religion as a resource to prevent or resolve conflict. Seminal publications such as Religion, Law and the Role of Force and the forthcoming book, Peacemakers in Action: Profiles in Religious Conflict Resolution, derive from these meetings. The center identifies and studies Peacemakers in Action - religious leaders who risk their lives working for peace - in order to learn new techniques and transferable practices. It also builds conflict resolution skills by training professionals working with ethnically and religiously diverse populations at the International Rescue Committee and by developing high school curricula with the National Crime Prevention Council. What is the Tanenbaum Center doing? � Through the Peacemakers in Action program, it identifies, studies and convenes religious leaders who work to resolve armed conflicts. � Each Peacemaker gets a monetary prize to further his/her work. � Research of their unique techniques and challenges. � Publishing the findings and share them with other religious leaders, scholars and government actors. � The center inspires men and women of religion to become peacemakers and encourages government actors to recognize and tap into religious leaders as responsible resources on the ground. � Cambridge University Press is publishing a book on the lives and work of the Tanenbaum Center's Peacemakers in Action in fall 2006. � The Center is launching the Women's Peace Initiative to identify women in the Middle East and North Africa who use religion in peacemaking. It will study and promote their work to bring attention to the power of women to effect positive change.
